The Helping Friendly Fair Trade Guide
Choose a trustworthy profile
CashorTrade.org is a tool to help you find tickets and goods for face value for cash or trade from fans you can trust. The more complete profile the stronger the member. Like craigslist we are a simple bulletin board of potential trades. Yet, UNLIKE craigslist we are FANS!!!!! We have structured CashorTrade.org to allow members to build their profiles to create trust and encourage members to trade with them. Basically, the more detailed your profile is the more trustworthy you become. This will increase the number of people who would be likely to trade with you. With so many trades being posted to the site each day, and so many people looking for the same tickets, what sets you apart from the others? Well, seeing how we do not allow above face value offers, YOUR PROFILE SETS YOU APART! So build your profile and encourage more trades. Click here to read our blog article on the 7 ways to build your profile.
Keep it FACE VALUE
Market value is NOT face value. Even if tickets are going for more or less. The idea is for all fans to get inside without losing $. If you sell your ticket for $20 you are losing. If you sell it for $100 they are losing. Keep trades 1 for 1 and offer your others at face to sweeten a deal. Help each other out and Embrace the Face!
Follow Through
If you commit to a trade stay true to your word and follow through and don't risk having your account deactivated. Backing out last minute leaves the member without tickets....or a bunch of extras they can't get rid of and you with negative reviews. Stay true and stay honest. We give you the tools to choose a real fan to trade with....so act and be a real fan.
